What It’s Really All About

Loving and Forgiving. Carly wrote an amazing blog post recently about what loving & forgiving really is. In particular, those who have had an abortion. It really struck home to me, because I am strongly pro-life. And reading what Carly had to say, I was reminded that we – that I – need to keep it in perspective. Yes, abortion is wrong, but judging and having hate in our hearts for those who have done so, is just as wrong. The Bible says that sin is sin. God doesn’t point a finger and say “Well you murdered someone, so you are worse than this Christian mother who lost her temper and yelled at her children.” No, both are sin. And when we ask for His forgiveness, He willingly gives it. To all. What an amazing lesson in love.

very true ((hugs)) and thanks for that reminder. ….although that doesn’t mean i’m not going to keep speaking out about the murder of innocent babies…it really upsets me so much when some of us try so hard for our babies!!!

Oh no, Leah, don’t get me wrong. I absolutely still think it’s very wrong and I’m not saying we shouldn’t speak out against abortion – no.This was more for me because sometimes I do find myself getting very angry at people with a judging heart. And I need to be careful of that.

And I agree that it is upsetting to see people just throwing life away when so many would give ANYTHING for that little life. It’s heartbreaking…

Have you heard the Casting Crown’s song, “While You Were Sleeping”? The lyrics are so true and I get shivers when I hear them – “Save the trees, but kill the children…” So sad… 🙁
